MESSAGE FROM PAT MOORE
PRESIDENT OF THE SOCIETY BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Welcome to the opening production of the 24th season of the
Chemainus Theatre – Million Dollar Quartet.
“last season
saw ticket
sales over
75,000”
Thanks to the artistry and commitment of our production,
management and development teams, and our team of over
150 volunteers, our last season saw ticket sales over 75,000
– our best attendance since 2007. This is a remarkable
development springing from the original inspiration and
the first productions of 1993.
On December 4, 1956 at the Sun Record Studios in Memphis,
Carl Perkins had come to record some new material with
little known Jerry Lee Lewis to play piano. 21-year-old Elvis
Presley, a former Sun artist, arrived to pay a casual visit. Sun
artist Johnny Cash arrived as well. After decades, this single
spontaneous session is considered a seminal moment in rock
and roll history.
Each performance at the Chemainus Theatre is produced to
bring the intimate spontaneity of high caliber professional
actors and creative teams from across Canada to the stage.
This experience is only possible because of our patrons,
volunteers and donors who have made Chemainus a national
focal point for live theatre. We need your support to continue.
More information on ways to support the Chemainus Theatre
is at: http://chemainustheatre.ca/support-us/
Thank you and enjoy the show.

DIRECTOR’S NOTES
MARK DUMEZ
Welcome to our 2016 Season. It’s a year where we tell stories
from all over the map – rural Ontario, small towns in New York
and Oklahoma, the Great Lakes and, in our Kidzplay show,
a mystic part of the BC Coast. We are looking forward to a
fantastic ride tasting flavours from all over.
“this blend
of blues,
gospel, folk
and other
elements
had its
origin in
the place we
will visit in
this show”
In my early 20’s, I had the joy of sampling tastes of the American
South for the better part of two years. I worked on a mask
show, painted houses and trained in one of the most unique
experiences of my life in and around Nashville and journeyed
to other parts including Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi the
Blue Ridge Mountains. It all had a life-long impact and
informed my artistry. Something about the heat, the flavour
and the spirit of the place is entirely unique in North America
and stews creativity.
In the musical realm, rockabilly is a uniquely Southern spice
that went on to shape music all over the world, and this blend
of blues, gospel, folk and other elements had its origin in the place
we will visit in this show – Sun Studio, Memphis, Tennessee.
A world of sound and personality sprung from this small
storefront. The recipe for this musical jambalaya is part sun
drenched soil, a helping of both wild spirit and a few quarts of
good ole’ boy fun. We hope you enjoy it as much as we have.
MARK DUMEZ Director
Mark is a proud resident of Vancouver Island and has enjoyed
directing Sherlock Holmes, Jeeves in Bloom, A Pretty Girl (A
Shayna Maidel), Ring of Fire, Elf: The Musical, The 39 Steps
and Amadeus for Chemainus Theatre. Other favourites include:
A Christmas Carol, Strindberg’s Easter, Anne, Mr. Pim Passes
By and Pet the Fish. He has collaborated with companies
including Theatre X, Pacific Theatre and TheatreOne to
develop over a dozen new plays. Favourite acting credits
include: Mass Appeal, Enchanted April, Queen Milli of Galt
and Streetcar Named Desire.

MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET:
Why We Tip Our Hats to a Tribute
Patrons of the Chemainus Theatre Festival
have shown us their enthusiasm for
musical tributes time and again. And we
wholly agree with their reviews. There
is something extraordinary about the
combination of a live music and performed
storytelling.
This appreciation for tribute-style shows
is one reason we bring you Million Dollar
Quartet.
Get ready to become flies on the wall of a
landmark day in American musical history.
A young Jerry Lee Lewis is playing piano
for a Carl Perkins recording session, when
the sudden appearance of chart-topper
Elvis Presley and rising-star Johnny Cash
transforms the night into a red-hot recording
session – thanks to quick-thinking
producer, Sam Phillips.
Sixty years later, these songs (and many
more from each artist) have won hearts
and whipped crowds into frenzy.
What makes a tribute show stand-out?
It is the way that music and background
story intertwine. Unlike traditional musicals,
the actors play the instruments, which
defines qualities of their character and
their journey.
Million Dollar Quartet is like four tributes
in one, with the music and stories of iconic
artists united by the coolest, coincidental
event in music history. We hope you’re
thrilled with the performance – and all the
incredible theatrical experiences we are
bringing you in 2016.
Thank you for being here to get the fun
rolling!
There’s even more to tip your hat to! Find
out about all the terrific musical, comedic,
and dramatic moments this season by
talking to any of our staff, or at

The “Man in Black” is coming back!
Due to foot-stompin’, crowd-pleasin’
demand, Johnny Cash is returning for
another sell-out run of shows. The popular
Broadway musical, Ring of Fire, is the
ultimate tribute to the singer and
musician who took his life from farming
to rockabilly fame. Cash made history and
influenced thousands through his jukebox
hits – including “Daddy Sang Bass,” “Ring
of Fire,” “I Walk the Line,” “I’ve Been
Everywhere,” and over three dozen songs
featured in the show.
With Million Dollar Quartet we see the
start of four rock legends. Bringing Ring
of Fire back, we can follow Cash on a
journey through his entire career. Both
are exceptionally performed, and our
audiences have raved about the music and
backstory. Johnny was a wild gentleman,
a rustic poet, a saved sinner and an
American music hero with a genre-busting
sound that still ‘kicks-it’ today.
Don’t miss your chance to see the “Man
in Black” perform his music and share
tumultuous stories of finding love, trouble,
faith, success, and redemption.
April 6 - 23, 2016. Tickets are available now
at 1-800-565-7738 or chemainustheatre.ca.
